Indian Air Force Calibration Services Tender NABL Accredited Labs 2026 - 50 MHz Logic Probe, Air Charging Gun, BER Tester Calibration

Tender Overview

The Indian Air Force, under the Department of Military Affairs, invites bids for Calibration Services across Mechanical, Electrical, and Electronics domains, specifically for NABL-lab calibration of select test equipment. Scope includes LOGIC PROBE/PULSER 50 MHz (QTY 03), AIR CHARGING GUN (QTY 02), and BER TESTER for V 35 interface (QTY 02). While the tender location and value are not disclosed, the requirement emphasizes NABL accreditation and the use of NABL-lab facilities. The procurement requires bidders to possess or demonstrate NABL accreditation and relevant calibration capabilities, with a focus on precise metrology in the defense domain. The absence of a BOQ suggests a focused, equipment-specific calibration contract with potential quantity adjustments per contract terms. The bid sits within the official calibration services category and targets reliable, standards-compliant measurement capabilities for critical air, electronic, and logic-testing hardware. This tender highlights the need for formal documentation and compliance to defense procurement norms, with emphasis on equipment-specific calibration accuracy and NABL validation.
